    Fairouz in Concert

    MONTREAL, Jan. 24 /CNW Telbec/ - Fairouz, the Lebanese Diva of Arabic
    music will be in Montreal on February 12 and 13, 2005 to present two
    exceptional concerts at Place des Arts, Salle Wilfrid-Pelletier.

    On her third visit to Montreal, 50 musicians of international fame,
    conducted by Maestro Karen Durgaryan will accompany Fairouz. Mr.
    Durgaryan has directed the Armenian Philharmonic Orchestra and the
    Symphonic Orchestra of Yerevan, to high levels of success and
    perfection, and has equally worked with Fairouz in her concerts in the
    Middle East, adding to her wide and varied repertoire even more
    refinement. Fairouz's repertoire is constantly evolving, whether it's
    ballads and classic songs composed by the Rahbani Brothers, or
    oriental jazz flavours of her son, the great composer, Ziad Rahbani.

    Karen Durgaryan has recently accompanied Fairouz in her concerts,
    where he was capable of bringing Western harmony to the varied music
    styles and melodies performed by Fairouz. The program for the Montreal
    concerts marries a marvelous mix of classic and modern songs with a
    mélange of western and eastern orchestrations that stay away from the
    oft-used concept of fusion. What the audience will experience with
    Fairouz is a musical extravaganza of the best kind.

    Fairouz in concert is not just music and performance, but the
    heavenly and unique voice of the mythical Diva. It's the Rahbani
    Brothers entire wealth and power of music and the improvisational
    talents of Ziad Rahbani. It's the orchestra, the chorale, the quality
    of the sound and the lighting systems. It's a winning rendez vous
    with happiness and a moment of absolute musical ecstasy to be
    cherished forever.
